. 'I Was Programmed to Be A Genius' MUMBAI: Tathagat Avatar Tulsi's parents merely smiled when their son was named among the world's seven most gifted youngsters in 2003; they had, after all, planned for it well before he was born. Indeed, in the realms of sci-fi, he would be known as a programmed child.   Prof Tulsi Narayan Prasad, an advocate at the Supreme Court and a serious practitioner of astro-genetics, had to fight the world around him when he proposed that the sex of a to-be-born child could be manipulated. He proved his theory right by declaring well in advance that he was going to have a male child.   "The sceptics brushed it off as an act of nature. I decided to have another male child. And, when that too happened, people stopped making snide remarks. Somewhere around that time I thought of producing a genius child," he told TOI with a smile on the day 22-year-old Tathagat passed through the portals of IIT as its youngest faculty. Tathagat,...

Income tax department launches drive to speed up Income Tax Refund The   income tax   department has launched a drive to file corrected returns with a view to do away with the problem of held-up refunds and   the tax   already paid not being credited to the assessees’ name. A large   number of people   whose tax is deducted at source did not get   the payments   credited which, in turn, held up refunds.   It was because the National Securities and Depositories Limited (NSDL), which accounts   the tax   receipts, could not record   the payments   as I-T returns of many did not carry the permanent account number (PAN).
